Thread subject: Diptera.info :: Tyrolean Calliphorid - Protophormia?

Hi,
In Niederthai (Austria, Tyrol, 1.500 m) in last August I saw several flies with incomplete rows of acrostichal setae and a wing venation that allowed for a Muscid or a Calliphorid. These two, I guessed, might be male and female of Protophormia terranovae (Calliphoridae), but I am awfully uncertain escpecially as to the male. Help is greatly appreciated!
Many thanks, Sundew

Here is the male:

FWIW I think Protophormia looks OK.
